Foods

Crispy Chicken Dijonnaise

This dish consists of a large piece of fried chicken cutlet, lightly salted fries and some lightly marinated salad. The cutlet is topped with their signature sauce, dijonnaise which tasted like mayonnaise that is not too salty, when combined with the smell and taste of the fried chicken, it tasted pretty good. However the cutlet is a bit too hard due to over-frying. The fries are normal, the salad is really nice with the sour vinegar taste.

Pan Fried Dory

The next dish that we tried is the Pan Fried Dory, which is really tasty and more importantly, much more pleasant to eat as it is much softer. This meal comes with a huge dory fillet, butter raisin rice, salad and wasabi mayo. The dory fillet is fried just nice giving a mild brown colour and crisp texture, it tastes excellent with its softness and fried fish aroma. Mixing the fish with the wasabi mayo gives it an overwhelming refreshing kick to each bite. The rice tastes pleasant with the raisin flavour, the salad is the same as the one in the crispy chicken dijonnaise.
